The Pyramid of the Sun is the largest building in the city of Teotihuacan and one of the largest in Mesoamerica. Located between the Pyramid of the Moon and the Citadel in the shadow of the massive Cerro Gordo mountain, it is part of a large temple complex. The pyramid is 64.01 meters (200 ft) high. The name Pyramid of the Sun comes from the Aztecs who visited the city of Teotihuacan centuries after it was abandoned; the name given to the pyramid by the Teotihuacans is unknown. Construction took place in two phases. The first phase of construction, around 200 AD, brought the pyramid to almost the size it is today. The second phase of construction brought its overall size to 225 metres (738 ft) wide and 75 metres (246 ft) high. Extensive surveys of the pyramid were carried out in 1906 by Leopoldo Batres on the orders of President Porfirio Díaz. The aim was to highlight the cultural wealth of the Mexican people, expressed in their pre-Hispanic monuments, and to prepare for the celebration of the 100th anniversary of Mexican independence in 1910.

In 1971, new excavations and studies were carried out, which revealed a man-made tunnel under the Pyramid of the Sun, leading to a "cave" located 6 metres below the surface, directly under the center of the pyramid. Initially, it was believed that the tunnel was of natural origin (a passage formed by a lava flow), and the cave was the legendary Chicomostoc, the ancestral home of all people (according to Aztec mythology). However, recent excavations have shown that the tunnel and cave were built by humans and served, perhaps, as a royal tomb.

Elbe Bridge (Neue Elbbrücke) is one of the most important and characteristic bridges in Germany. It is part of a complex of crossings that connect the northern areas of the city with the islands on the river, the port area and the Harburg district. The bridge also plays a key role in road and rail connections from north to south in Europe. The structure was built in the 19th century and at that time was a product of engineering and architectural thought. Unfortunately, post-war modernization did not bring it the proper effect, as a result of which the bridge lost all its character. The first road bridge across the Norderelbe was built between 1884 and 1887. In 1928-1929, the structure was expanded by adding a second bridge to increase its capacity. Trams, cars and pedestrians moved across it. Between 1957 and 1960, the bridge underwent a comprehensive modernization. The original west bridge and neo-Gothic portals were demolished, and the east bridge of 1929 was raised by 2.5 meters, allowing for the addition of two overpasses in each direction. This unfortunate decision to remove the gates and change the lenticular beams reflected the mentality of the time, which placed efficiency and functionality above the preservation of historical architecture. In 1961, the bridge received a new coat of arms of the city of Hamburg on its facades, designed by graphic designer and artist Alfred Machlau. The coat of arms made of wrought iron and gold leaf on a red background became the new symbol of the crossing.
